Creative Arts Financial has a two interesting GIC promos for a limited time. Anyone in Ontario can become a member and an account can be opened without visiting the branch. They are under the umbrella of FirstOntario C.U. Has anyone here done business with them?

1 yr. cashable GIC @ 4.35% p.a. (if cashed early, 2.17% p.a. in first 6 months; 3.26% p.a. in months 7 to 11).
